Song Hye-kyo Is Korean Too: Samgyeopsal and Doenjang Jjigae Are What She Enjoys With Her Mother

Actor Song Hye-kyo offered a glimpse of a simple everyday meal she enjoyed with her mother, sharing a dining-table scene centered on familiar Korean comfort foods.

On June 1, Song revealed the menu she had eaten with her mother. The meal included samgyeopsal, Korean grilled pork belly, along with doenjang jjigae, a soybean paste stew, and namul, seasoned vegetable side dishes.

Reports often introduce restaurants said to be frequented by wealthy business figures, but the article noted that the daily meals of politicians, chaebol figures and top stars are, in reality, not dramatically different from what ordinary people eat. Song Hye-kyo likewise showed that she enjoys foods widely loved by everyday diners, including samgyeopsal and doenjang jjigae.

Song Hye-kyo is set to appear in the Netflix series "Slowly and Intensely," which is scheduled to be released this year.
